My 15gb iPod doesn't even hold a third of my MP3 collection (about 13.5gb of music, 1985 songs atm), and while 80% of the time I'm listening to 20% of the collection, the other 20% of the time I'm listeing to anything from the entire collection. I'd love a 60gb ipod. Then I'd be able to hold all my music and have about 15-20gb free to move shit to and from work.
I'm nervous driving automatics because I'm not used to them
I hear that bro. First auto car I owned (180sx), I used to always pull up to a stop, and go to put the clutch in and drop down to second/first. Which of course resulted in me hitting the giant brake pedal and locking up the wheels- But it wasn't auto for long, so it wasn't a problem. Did it again a couple of times when I first had my Monaro tho:)
No. Plasma tvs are a horrible technology that degrades fairly rapidly with time (pixels dying off), and at best a stop-gap solution until OLEDs become mainstream, and Sony et al know this. Plasma is basically a "hey, look how much money I have" badge, and they will remain rediclously priced until OLEDs are big enough and reliable enough to replace them at the same prices. Then plasmas will be worth spit. OLEDs will drop in price though, as they'll be used for smaller tvs and pc monitors as well.
I remeber the revelation that occured when I realised that if i sat in the very back seat as opposed to the regular back seat (in an old ford econovan) the old feller couldn't reach me with the possum stick from up front when my brother and I were fucking around in the back.
When I think about it, that was probably my first real hack:)
Exacly what I was thinking. Take this example snippet:
Opposition to nuclear energy is based on irrational fear fed by Hollywood-style fiction, the Green lobbies and the media. (((No it isn't.))) These fears are unjustified, (((oh no they're not)))
Wow, that mature, researched and footnoted response will definitely swing people towards your point of view. Not to mention the entire tone of this response seems to be "nuclear power==nookyoolar bombs". How this made slashdot I have no idea. And I'd like the subitter's political opinions cut from the story blurb too dagnabbit.
Ew god no, I can't even eat iceberg on sandwiches. I enjoy the yuppy lettuces on sandwiches, and in salads with tasty dressing and burps-and-spices, but I sure couldn't eat two of the things:)
Get the in-ear ones, I just got a pair for my ipod, and they're much better than the bud-style ones. Not as good as a pair of B&Os or anything, but then they were only $60, not $200.
They still give you morphine to kill pain if you're fucked up enough to need it in hospital, and it all comes from the same place (well it did once anyway).
If you launch them from a ship in international waters, sure. Otherwise you've got to deal with the government of whatever country from which you launch and their version of the FAA.
But what I meant to say was the page table entries don't have an execute bit, which is what I believe the NX flag is, for cases where the OS was designed with 4gb flat selectors for CS/DS. This would allow (with much less modification to applications/system) page-specific protection against execution.
No, the really disturbing part (for americans at least) is how much equipment there is installed here in australia (pine gap etc) for spying on americans.
Personally vice city felt a fair sight smaller than liberty city to me. Frankly I don't want a whole lot extra added to what was VC, just more of it, and more unique missions. The storylines are interesting, but compared to the general feel of the game, they're so linear, especially in GTA3 like when the mob decides to stiff you, no matter what you do. Bah, I'm just ranting I suppose:)
Americans and their obsession with hair. If you're going bald, shave off what's left, get a nice even finish. I've never met anybody male or female who cares if others are bald, and I've got a few mates who went cue-ball at 18, and it's never bothered them. I've even got a couple of mates who find bald women sexy! Personally, I've got the ability to grow a nice head of hair, but it's been getting a regular #2 recently, and I've spend a fair amount of time in the past with it as bald as I can get it with a razor... BALD IS BEAUTIFUL!:D

So, which will you buy? If you get the rebel, will you hack it?

Sir, I am humbled :)

You can eat two whole lettuces at one sitting and consume only 40 calories!
No, No I can't. There's about as much flavour in two whole lettuces as there is in my adidas.

Hmmm... I know! Rocky V, plus rocky II, equals Rocky VII, Adrian's revenge!
Yes. I want my porn as high res as I can get it, thank you.
Also great for keeping up the supply of donor organs! Everybody wins!
The last great Star Trek movie was Nemesis
Yeah I totally agree, the two that followed Nemesis were totally crap. It was definitely the last good one.

Well I don't really think she looked good in that outfit back in the 80s, so it's gotta be pretty bad by now ;-)

Who really cares about the licenses anyway? I think NOLF is proof you don't need to pay for the bond rights to make a kick-ass bond style game.
Spoilt brats, we got turbo pascal!
;-)
Cue: "Walked up hill both ways, we had z80 assembler and we loved it!"
Ok, you're right you got me. /me smack head

Bzt... LDT/GDT entries on the x86 don't have seperate read and execute bits, which I imagine is exactly what this NX flag is.

Ah, the elusive "Score:5, Troll"
Comedy gold.
